I have a 36gal HEX and I would love to have a FW planted aquarium. I am a huge fan of metal halides and would like to hang a 175w 10K pendant above the tank. Is this to much light -> if so what’s the max watts I should have? If not will the light cause rapid growth requiring me to get a c02 injection system?

Thanks guys,
